    Hi Kungfu, Thank you for your speedy reply.  I wonder if you have any names that might ring a bell, Do you remember the Brophys who lived above Wellington on Third Ave.

    Did you know either of the Barr boys, Ed and Jim. They went to St.Willibroads
    and they lived on Fourth Ave., between Verdun & Bannantyne. Or did you know Babs Lowe, Barbara Booth who both also went to St. Willibroads.

    I can see this is an old post but I am keen to know if anyone on here knows the Martin family. They lived on 2nd Ave. 1935-1940s number 644. It would have been John (Jack) and his wife and I think his brother Micheal who would have been in his 20s. Any help would be great.
